Characterization of Heat Waves in the Sahel and Associated Physical Mechanisms [PDF]
Journal of Climate, 2017 Great effort is made to address heat waves (HWs) in developed countries because of their devastating impacts on society, economy, and environment. However, HWs are still understudied over developing countries. This is particularly true in West Africa, and especially in the Sahel, where temperatures recurrently reach critical values, such as during the
